Palin's $180,000 Wardrobe Stuffed in Trash Bags, Not Donated - StyleList Blog »

Posted By TimALoftis 10 months, 4 weeks ago in Style

Sarah Palin's folksy image took a serious shot after her campaign and the Republican National Committee dropped a whopping $180,000 on swanky designer threads for the governor and her family. Chastised by party donors and blasted by the media, Palin and the RNC insisted the clothing was "on loan" and would be donated to charities after the election. So maybe it was a waste of money -- but at least the underprivileged could carry Louis Vuitton purses just like the rich and famous.

Or maybe not. Turns out the high-class, high-dollar gear is sitting around RNC headquarters, stuffed in plastic trash bags.

    Right ... And IF it's true, so what, she never took possession of the wardrobe and never wore it. If anything, the RNC is the guilty party IF this is true and I seriously doubt it simply because it is a matter of record that most of that wardrobe was returned to the stores where purchased. This is just another in the nauseating attempts to discredit Palin. Soooo, here we go again with the same old same old rhetoric from the same old same old posters.

    Let's see the Dem just spend over $800,000,000,000.00 of your tax dollars on junk and you are worried about $180,000.00 of donated money, not even yours. I am not surprised at all by your concern.

      Just another example of the shallowness and hypocrisy of Palin and the Republicans.

        Sarah Palin isn't responsible for any of the BS over those clothes. She didn't shop for them, stopped wearing them after the hoopla started, and gave them back as she was supposed to do.

        In related news, Palin is still sour about the whole clothes thing... she's just started her own PAC...

        Personal Attire Committee.

        Donations to this committee can be made in Neiman-Marcus gift checks.

        Note the comments on the Stylish site and how they turned rather abruptly from Palin to Obama and the costs of the inaugartion and related festivities. Anything that will get "center-stage", 'eh?

        BTW: The new 800 BILLION stimulus passed the House and now on to the Senate.

        "Or maybe not. Turns out the high-class, high-dollar gear is sitting around RNC headquarters, stuffed in plastic trash bags".

        Hilarious, if true. When will they realize it's worth a fortune on EBAY ...

          Perhaps they are saving it all for her next run at an office. Frightening thought!

            You guys are worried about cloths purchased by the GOP for their candidate? My goodness, what a bunch of losers. Your party just rammed a "stimulus" package through that provides less than $ 0.12 on the dollar for actual job creation. So much for hope and change. Same old Democratic party. Big on welfare, pork and doubling the size of government small on real job creation.

            You are REALLY afraid of Palin!!!!

            Good news for the Republicans. She is someone who might finance some candidates who will beat your candidates. Yeesss - be very afraid.
